Enantioselective allylic substitution with enolates derived from aliphatic esters under mild conditions remains challenging. Herein we report iridium-catalyzed enantioselective allylation reactions of silyl ketene acetals, the silicon enolates of esters, to form products containing a quaternary carbon atom at the nucleophile moiety and a tertiary carbon atom at the electrophile moiety. Under relatively neutral conditions, the allylated aliphatic esters were obtained with excellent regioselectivity and enantioselectivity. These products were readily converted into primary alcohols, carboxylic acids, amides, isocyanates, and carbamates, as well as tetrahydrofuran and γ-butyrolactone derivatives, without erosion of enantiomeric purity.

A copper-catalyzed enantioselective Claisen rearrangement of easily accessible enolphosphonates using the commercially available PhBOX as the chiral ligand was developed. A wide range of rearrangement products with contiguous tertiary and all-carbon quaternary centers were obtained in excellent yields and stereoselectivities. The α-ketophosphonate substituent in the products could be easily transformed into other functional groups. Copyright
